Yeahess Mike
I must admit I fell asleep at 9 but I had been Audi wrenching all day at Gabor's shop.  Sorry I missed the ring.   Some of my best friends are drunk dialers.
New C6 pads + hydraulic hose fix and I held the light whilst he installed wheel bearings in his S8.
I learned a lot... Like how to have the right equipment.
